A circle with circumference 8, has an arc with a 288 degree central angle. What is the length of the arc?

2 answers:

8 0

We know that
the circumference C=2*pi*r
C=8 units

if 360° (full circle) has a length of-----------> 8 units
288°---------------------------> x
x=288*8/360-------> x=6.4 units

the answer is
6.4 units

Answer:
length of arc = 6.4 units

Explanation:
The length of the arc can be calculated using the following formula:
length of arc = 2π * radius * $\frac{angle}{360}$ 

Taking a look at the equation and comparing it with the given, we would find that:
2π*r is the equation for calculating the circumference.
We are given that the the circumference of the circle is 8 units
theta is the angle subtended by the arc = 288°

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the length of the arc as follows:
length of arc = 8 * $\frac{288}{360}$ 
length of arc = 6.4 units

Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is "Points per game of a high school team"

The hypothesis is that the average score per game is greater than before, so the parameter to test is the population mean (μ)

The hypothesis is:

H₀: μ ≤ 99

H₁: μ > 99

α: 0.01

There is no information about the variable distribution, I'll apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the sample mean (X[bar]) to normal since whether you use a Z or t-test, you need your variable to be at least approximately normal. Considering the sample size (n=36) I'd rather use a Z-test than a t-test.

The statistic value under the null hypothesis is:

Z= X[bar] - μ = 101 - 99 = 2

σ/√n 6/√36

I don't have σ, but since this is an approximation I can use the value of S instead.

I hope it helps!

Ten turns of a wire are helically wrapped around a cylindrical tube with outside circumference 4 inches and length 9 inches. The

kari74 [83]

Answer:

b) 36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the wire = Outside circumference of the cylindrical tube * length of the cylinder

= 4 * 9

= 36 inches

Length of the wire will be same to the surface area of the cylinder

Surface area of cylinder = circumference * length

1600 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 5.25%. How much will be in the account after 25 years, to t

Andru [333]

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

y=ab^x

y=ab

a=\text{starting value = }1600

a=starting value = 1600

r=\text{rate = }5.25\% = 0.0525

r=rate = 5.25%=0.0525

\text{Exponential Growth:}

Exponential Growth:

b=1+r=1+0.0525=1.0525

\text{Write Exponential Function:}

Write Exponential Function:

y=1600(1.0525)^x

y=1600(1.0525)

Put it all together

\text{Plug in time for x:}

Plug in time for x:

y=1600(1.0525)^{25}

y=1600(1.0525)

y= 5750.0628984

y=5750.0628984

Evaluate

y\approx 5750.06

y≈5750.06

Find the general form of the function that satisfies da/dt = -9a

posledela

The given equation is
$\frac{da}{dt} =-9a$

This ODE (Ordinary Differential Equation) is separable.
That is,
$\frac{da}{a} = -9$

Integrate to obtain
$\int \frac{da}{a} =-9 \int dt \\\\ ln(a) = -9t + k \\\\ a(t) = c \, e^{-9t}$
where k, c are constants.

Answer: $a(t) = c \, e^{-9t}$ , c = constant.

Person A is breathing five times as fast as person B. Compare the graphs of the breathing of the two people over time.

hammer [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on what the question is telling you, as it's given to you in the question. It's saying five times, which means "×5" the number of person B, so it'll always be 5 times quicker, since they're breathing more times in a certain period of time than person B.

Hopefully this helped!
